EDITORS COMMENTS
Sir Matthew Hale (1609-1676), an English jurist of great renown, is depicted in this striking portrait. Hale's legal expertise and unwavering loyalty to the Crown earned him a place in history as a defender of Archbishop Laud and other Royalists during the turbulent political climate of the English Civil War. Born in Bocking, Essex, Hale was educated at Trinity College, Cambridge, and called to the bar at the Middle Temple in 1634. He quickly rose through the ranks of the legal profession, becoming Solicitor General in 1643 and eventually serving as Lord Chief Justice of the King's Bench from 1673 until his death. In this image, Sir Matthew Hale is shown wearing the insignia of his high office. The ermine-trimmed robe and chain signify his position as a judge, while the skullcap and round, fur-trimmed cape are typical attire for a legal proceeding. The chain around his neck bears the royal crest, further emphasizing his allegiance to the monarchy. Despite his commitment to the Crown, Hale was not immune to the political upheaval of the time. He was imprisoned in the Tower of London during the Commonwealth period, but was eventually released and resumed his legal practice. Hale's most notable contribution to English law is his work "The History of the Pleas of the Crown," which remains a seminal text in the field of criminal law to this day. Sir Matthew Hale's legacy as a jurist and defender of the Crown continues to be celebrated in legal circles and beyond. This portrait, with its intricate details and solemn expression, offers a glimpse into the life of a man who played a pivotal role in shaping the legal landscape of England during a time of great turmoil.
